Baron Discovery Fund Randy Gwirtzman | “Rubrik, Inc., a subscription software company focused on automating backup, storage, and recovery of corporate data, as well as creating resilience to cyberattacks on that data. It serves many Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies including leading technology and defense firms. We purchased our investment in the mid-$50s per share during the SaaS-pocalypse when the market believed that every software company would be disintermediated by AI. Investors were also concerned that the increased cost of memory chips (due to an AI-data-center-induced shortage), would hamstring growth and margins of Rubrik as it and its customers use backup hardware. This has not materialized, and Rubrik does not believe memory costs are a material issue. At the time we invested, shares traded at about 21 times enterprise value to free cash flow (on 2027 numbers), with free cash flow growing over 40%. If the company has a clear competitive advantage (which we obviously believe based on our diligence), it was a steal at that price (it closed the quarter at over $80 per share).” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Aug 5, 2026 | View Pitch |
Greenalpha Investment Garvin Jabusch | “In an economy where data is the most valuable asset and ransomware is the most potent threat, Rubrik provides the essential last line of defense. It has redefined cloud-era data protection through a cyber resilience platform ensuring operational continuity. The Last Line of Defense: Rubrik's immutable, air-gapped “digital black box” protects critical data from attackers, turning ransomware into a recoverable event. Pioneering Zero Trust Data Security: Built on the principle that breaches are inevitable, every action is continuously verified, protecting backup data even if networks are compromised. AI-Powered Cyber Ops: Its Ruby co-pilot uses generative AI to proactively detect anomalies and automate threat response, freeing human analysts for higher-value work. Strategic Alliance: Deep integration with Microsoft Sentinel and Azure cloud cements Rubrik as the de facto standard for enterprise data resilience globally. BSD Analysis: Rubrik's cloud-native Zero Trust model and Microsoft partnership anchor it as an emerging cybersecurity platform. Its AI-driven automation and high retention rates (>130% net revenue retention) point to durable SaaS economics. With rapid ARR growth (~40% YoY) and expanding enterprise traction, valuation premium is justified. Key catalysts: AI integration, Azure co-sell expansion, and public sector adoption.” | BULL | Q3 2025 Sep 30, 2025 | View Pitch |
